Like all the other Minmatar Dropsuits, it'll be the most under-performing of the lot.
A Gallente Sentinel will be able to fill the speed tank role better than the Minmatar can. If the Minmatar Sentinel had one more low slot, I think it would be more viable.

I'm not sure being able to strafe a whopping 5% faster than the Gallente and Caldari Sentinels is going to save it's hide. Although it's ground speed is ~11% faster than the Amarr.
The extra speed the Minmatar Sentinel gains for the eHP it sacrifices is hardly advantageous.

You have a really scary suit that is resistant to ARs and SCRs. If my math is right, and it probably isn't. With Biotics 5 and Kin Cats to 5, two Complex would put you up around 7.43, which beats all Assault suits except Minmatar, even with Biotics 5 on the Cal, Gal, and Ammar.
Sorry, but you're wrong, but that's alright, because the correct math gives an even better result. The max Sprint Speed the Minmatar Sentinel can get with Lv 5 Biotics, Lv 5 KinCats, and Two Complex KinCats is a whopping 8 m/s
Here's the math for you numberphiles: 5.67 m/s(Base Sprint) * 1.05(Biotic Lv 5) * 1.3429(Two Complex KinCats at Lv 5 and with Stacking Penalties) = 7.99 m/s or just simply 8 m/s
Now check this bullshit out!
Gallente Sentinel
5.39 m/s(Base Sprint) * 1.05(Biotics Lv 5) *1.4731(Three Complex KinCats at Lv 5 with Stacking Penalties) = 8.34 m/s with room left over for another lowslot module of your choice, if you want to add a 4th KinCat well then you're ******* flying at 8.74 m/s.
That's right, it's possible for the Gallente Sentinel to outclass the Minmatar Sentinel at it's own specialty, speed.

Not to be a dillhole. But...
I just put 2 complex Kin Cats on a Heavy suit, a Proto Assault, Proto Logi, and a Scout suit, and from their base movement speed, which never changes, every suits sprint speed was 1.83 and some decimals, without fail. Some rounded slightly differently, but 1.83 was common on the six suits I made.
If I take that number times the Minmatar movement speed (4.05) I get 7.44. So, apparently all my suits choose to gimp themselves naturally, which is strange.
Yes, I have Biotics to 5 and Kin Cats to 5. These suits has literally not a single item other than 2 Complex Kin Cats. So, show me where I f*cked up please.
I'm not trying to be rude, but you're not being very clear. I don't understand where this "1.83" is coming from. And why would you multiply it by the base ground speed of the Minmatar Sentinel? If you could be a bit clearer, show some calculations and such, I'll better be able to figure out where you're messing up with the math. Again, not trying to be a dillhole either
